BLOODWALKER

When Zorka Circus performs, its big top roars
with laughter and cheers, but when it moves on, there are fewer children in the
European towns it leaves behind.

Circus Security Chief Rurik suspects a killer
hides among the international performers, but they close ranks—they’ve always
viewed lightning-scarred Rurik as the monster. Nevertheless, he's determined to
find the culprit and stop them before anyone else dies and the only place he
can call home is ripped apart by the murders.

Into Zorka Circus comes the Skomori clan,
despised as gravediggers and ghoulish bloodwalkers. A one-day truce allows
bloodwalker Sylvie to marry. Instead, she finds a body. Alerting others will
defy her clan’s strict rules, break the truce, and leave her an outcast.

When more bodies turn up, the killer's trail
becomes impossible to ignore. Rurik and Sylvie must follow the clues—even if
they lead to something unimaginable.

“YA horror novelist Cain (Soul Cutter) steps right up to
the center ring in this captivating shocker of children disappearing after the
circus comes to town.” ~ Publishers Weekly

Congratulations, Lexa! Very scary cover! I've hated clowns ever since childhood. I used to imagine clowns everywhere - in the wallpaper, in the clouds, in the landscape - and naturally they were always out to get me! Wishing you much success with Bloodwalker!!

It looks like I'm the exception. I've always liked clowns. I have a beautiful painting of Emmett Kelly, along his signature. (Full disclosure: I inherited it from my parents; I don't like clowns so much that I would have actually bought it myself... I'd rather spend my money on books!)

I would love to hear from you, say hello and leave your blog address - I'll visit, but please take with you my undying gratitude that you stopped by for a read. Be well, be happy, and may your blog surfing bring you joy!
